The story of Agira is lost between myth and reality. Thucydides claims that these areas were inhabited by the Cyclops while some finds, still being analyzed, would date the first human settlements to more than 30,000 years ago, when Sicily was still connected to the mainland. The name of the city is also a matter of debate. Some make it derive from the name of Agiride, a leader of the Sican people, who would have founded the city while others link it to the Greek word argyos, silver, due to the presence in the vicinity of a mine of the precious metal.

View of Agira

Highlight • Viewpoint

Agira is a Sicilian town whose history confuses myth and reality. Thucydides claims that these areas were inhabited by the Cyclops. Thanks to some historical findings it is thought that the first human settlements here date back to more than 30,000 years ago, when Sicily was still connected to the mainland.

Lake Pozzillo

Highlight (Segment) • Lake

Lake Pozzillo, also known as Lake Orcel, is an artificial reservoir created by blocking the waters of the Salso river. The dam was completed in 1959 and is part of a larger project that included the creation of four other artificial lakes in the province of Enna. The water collected during the winter season is used for agricultural purposes in the months with less rainfall. A wooded area has developed around the lake consisting mainly of eucalyptus trees which today guarantees an ideal refreshment for migratory fauna in transit. In the vicinity of the reservoir there are several routes and excursions on foot and by bicycle are organized regularly.

Regalbuto

Highlight • Settlement

Regalbuto was most likely founded in the Muslim era. In fact, the name itself derives from two Arabic words: "Rahl" (station) and "Bayt" (farmhouse). In fact, the first settlement in the area was nothing more than a farmhouse that served as a refueling station on the Catania-Palermo route. Nothing remains of that first village also because in 1261 the entire town was razed to the ground by the inhabitants of nearby Centuripe in the context of a war of rebellion against the Swabian dominion, to which Regalbuto had remained faithful. The town was later rebuilt on the opposite side of Mount S. Calogero. In the same period the population underwent a demographic change with the progressive removal of the Muslims and the arrival of the Christians.
If you happen to pass through Regalbuto towards the beginning of August, do not miss the feast of the patron saint San Vito Martire which takes place every year from the 7th to the 11th of August.
